Hi,
Look at his text (below) from LinkedIn ESRI Forestry GIS
Amazing, You share your experience, you pay ESRI $100.
Seriously. Have a look at the end part of the text, re: "how GIS has
helped you solve a problem or bring value to your forestry
organization".
It might be useful to what we are going to achieve in QGIS for Forestry.
Thanks,
Noli

Share a Forestry GIS Case Study
It's almost too late - abstracts close March 16, 2012! Share a
forestry GIS case study and take advantage of a $300 discount off the
standard registration fee. Presenters are eligible for a discounted
registration rate of $100 which includes all scheduled sessions,
beverage breaks, daily lunches, access to the Map Gallery, EXPO and
social, and the option of the Thursday fieldtrip or technical
workshops.
The Esri Forestry GIS Conference, hosted by the Esri Forestry Group,
brings a community of like-minded GIS users together to talk about
experiences and discuss ideas. Support this community by presenting a
case study about how GIS has helped you solve a problem or bring value
to your forestry organization.
- Demonstrate tools, integrations or solutions that improve forest management.
- Describe a model that you used for analysis.
- Share application designs for office, web, or field GIS users.
- Show your lidar or imagery processing workflows.
- Explain your approach to data management and editing.
- Share successes leveraging GIS using spatial optimization.
